Watch all of our WV adventures: th-cam.com/play/PLZKRTK1yCEM5a4PAiayjCpGAkRdeCeb5G.html Safety is our #1 priority and we want to stress that this adventure, and all future adventures, will be done responsibly and with the health of others in mind. Here are the steps we are taking everyday, including in these videos: 😷Masks and face coverings. We wear these anytime we are near others outside and especially indoors. If we don’t have a mask on in a video, it’s 99% because there was no one around. ⏰ Exploring early. We normally start at sunrise anyway because of less crowds, but especially so with COVID. We have been starting our days before sunlight so we can limit our interactions. 🧼 Washing and sanitizing our hands, especially after touching anything outside of the van. 🚐 Being in the van 95% of the time when we’re not filming. The adventures we share are a small sliver of our lives. We are staying in the van all day everyday when working and the only time we leave is to do laundry, get gas, or go to the store. 6️⃣ Keeping our distance. We are trying to stay at least 6 ft from others, which truthfully isn’t always possible (and then we make sure we cover our face).
Now you two are about 5 hours away from me. I'm in eastern Pennsylvania. Won't find slaw on much up here either. My Mary Kay lady lives around where you were in this video. She used to live up here. Those biscuit sandwiches looked amazing!
WV is known for a few things, 1: mountain scenary, 2: pepperoni rolls and 3: friendliest folk in the country Heck, before we moved we never really locked our doors in the day at all, till 1 day when a strang guy moved in and had a different accent, a while later when my mom and dad left, the door was POUNDING, I thought it was mom and dad, but I didnt here any key rattling, then next morning my bike, was gone, it was stolen
Oh my heart ❤ When my husband and I first moved in together, we moved to Fairmont. After a while we moved for Morgantown for a few years, but in early 2017 we made our way back to Fairmont. It was our home where we lived for 3 years, where our daughter took her first steps and our son met his best friends. We moved during the shutdowns last spring and have been terribly homesick ever since. The dock you were sitting on at Palatine Park is directly across the river from the home we lived in. And the Tudor's you stopped at was just up the road from the house we lived at in Star City. I used to stop for breakfast every few weeks with my son before taking him to daycare, while I was pregnant with my daughter. A Little Tator was the first food I asked for in the hospital after having her. This video made me so incredibly happy 🥰
Your comment made us so incredibly happy, thank you! We are very glad we could help you relive your time there and see some spots that meant a lot to you! ❤️❤️
Thank you. Thank you for not doing the typical jokes and stupid remarks said over and over again about our state. The last one I clicked on I thought was going to be a good first interaction entering WV instead they didn't even get out of the car and had the same tired tropes. Much love and respect to you both. I'm now subscribed with all notifications on. I know this was from 2 years ago but being grateful someone gave us a real chance will never end. Cheers to you! PS it's pronounced yans not like yawns. Bob Huggins, he's in the hall of fame now finally.
We think WV is super underrated and beautiful! We had a great time there and everyone is always really friendly! We love traveling and appreciating places for what they offer. Thank you for your kind comment! It means a lot to us! Also, it's tough to beat Tudor's! I (Adam) always rave about that place!
Being from WV I'm very glad to see people showing our state in a positive manner. Welcome to WV and if you are ever back our way try to make a stop by The Greenbrier. You guys seem like very nice people and thank you for these videos.
Great video! We had one of the best trips we've ever taken there. West Virginia is beautiful. We we're saddened to hear about the cancelled New England trip though. We're heading there next week. We've already cancelled it for this summer so we're going ahead. PS- Thanks for the postcard!
Adventures of A plus K not the pronunciation more for the cuteness. Sorry being a bad follower I haven’t had a chance to check out your Virginia video till now. Really pretty scenery and food tour. Taking my notes, maybe we will do it next year 🤩🤩🤩
Being from this area I think you guys did it justice as outsiders! You didn’t make any jokes about stereotypes. There are obviously unhealthy traditions here, and I appreciate that you guys didn’t talk down about.
Of course! There are good and bad stereotypes about every place, but we choose to see the positive in every place we visit and had the BEST time in WV!
They provided context also. A lotta WV food is the result of tough times and tough work. Whether mining or poverty, the people make do with what they've got. It might not be the healthiest but it'll keep ya alive.
Our favorite part of the food was learning why it became so popular and the history behind it. It's food with a story, which makes it really interesting to us.
I grew up in St. Albans (southern portion of WV), and Tudor’s is part of my blood stream. When I come home to visit, I end up getting Tudor’s every morning. That one in Morgantown is a newer restaurant. The one I grew up with is crusty and greasy... which adds to the character & flavor. Welcome to WV. I love the mountains.
When I visit family in Point Pleasant WV, I time my drive to get there while Tudors is still open since they close early. I get my welcome back meal before I get to the house, because Mamaw likes to cook for me when I’m there and there won’t be any going out for food, except the Mexican food place near the River front, she only gets to go there when I visit. Sadly due to C-19 I didn’t get to go in July 2020, fingers crossed I can go this year.
St. Albans resident here too! And yes, Tudors is a must. Give yourself plenty of time to wait in line to get breakfast there before going to work, but it’s so worth it!!
If you're ever in Charleston, West Virginia be sure to check out Ellen's Ice Cream on Capitol Street. You can also get great food and entertainment when Live on the Levee is in season ( Fridays over the summer starting at around 6:30).
As someone who was raised here in clarksburg, wv I agree. Oliverios has the best peppers and tomatoes, parkette is also a good family ran restraunt. Also dont forget Tony's icecream and make sure you get the black raspberry flavored.
This is so amazing!! Pepperoni Rolls are such an iconic Central Appalachian food! If you all make your way through Kentucky, you should try to check out the Red River Gorge Area!!
Glad you enjoyed my home state. I’m from the wheeling area of West Virginia and I always enjoy seeing someone appreciate our state. I feel like we’re pretty underrated by people.
IKR , my husbands family lives in Maryland.. and I get all the eve jokes. I wouldn’t live anywhere else.. it’s beautiful.. ntm we are firm second amendment supporters. I would not want to live where I can’t protect myself and family from a criminal with a gun.
Just found your channel a couple of weeks ago and so glad I did. Love my Yann Dogs, Country Club Bakery Pepperoni Rolls and Tudor's Biscut World. College was full of Yann dogs. And when I'm visiting my home state, there's always a visit to Biscuit World. Beauty abounds in the Mountain State and I hope you get to experience it all. Check out Blackwater Falls, Dolly Sods, and Seneca Rock as they're the pride of the state. And of course there is the New River Gorge area plus many historic areas such as Harper's Ferry and Jackson's Mill. Travel the country roads and enjoy the peaceful, rolling mountains. Keep up the great work! Mountaineer Proud!
Aw yay! So glad you found us and awesome timing that we are now in your home state! We are absolutely loving it so far! The mountains, country roads, food, and history are all amazing. We are definitely visiting the majority of those spots you mentioned and cannot wait to share 🙌
We reallyyyy wanted to and tried to alter our route for it, but couldn't fit it in this time. It looks SO cool and tasty though! And that song has been stuck in our head for a week lol!
I was going to suggest Hillbilly Hot Dog too!! Guy Fieri has been there on Diners, Drive ins & Dives!! They have really good hot dogs!! Also, if y'all are ever back here in WV, you should definitely eat at Pies & Pints!!
If ever in WV again, in the Charleston area they have some great local and small places but a small biscuit place is called suzys, they only really do breakfast and lunch and are closed by 1 I think but they have even better biscuits than Tudor’s! And also try lolas pizza or Hudson’s pizza, lolas is a little more expensive but well worth it in my opinion.
@@AdventuresofAplusK there used to be two suzy's locations, now there is only one. directy across from the mound in south charleston wv. there is a nifty lil asian supermarket there too.
I just found your channel today, and have enjoyed your videos. For true WV hot dogs, you need to travel south, to Huntington, WV, and try them at Midway Drive In. They are the best around. Another institution in Huntington is Frost Top. Both are amazing, and they both still make their root beer in-house, to compliment the hot dogs. Definitely worth the trip.
We reallyyyy wanted to make it to Huntington and almost drove out of the way to go out there, but couldn't swing it. Definitely will next time though! We love homemade root beer!
I had pepperoni rolls shipped to me while I was in Iraq. We actually make our own, but we grind the pepperoni sticks. It allows more juice to escape into the bread !
We cannot wait to be back in NC! Last time we were by the Blue Ridge Parkway it was snowing and mostly closed, so we are hoping for better luck this time!
I was born and raised in Bluefield, WV, on the Southern border of Virginia and West Virginia. I went to college at West Virginia University (WVU) in Morgantown, WV, about 4 hours drive north of my hometown. I always thought the Dairy Queen in my hometown made the best Slaw Dog. The minor league baseball stadium for Bowen Field, home of the Bluefield Blue Jays, makes a great Slaw Dog too. Love WV Pepperoni Rolls. Also Love Pinto Beans and Cornbread. If you want to try some true seasonal West Virginia foods, try Ramps (Wild Onions/Garlic) in the Spring and Pawpaws in the Fall. Both of these food items need to be foraged in the woods or found in the local Farmer’s Market.
We tried some Pawpaw ice cream in Charleston, WV and LOVED it! Super good! We've heard about ramps in the spring and will have to come back to try it! Pinto beans and cornbread sounds amazing too 😋
I would have to say that the best slaw dogs are at the Dairy Queen across the border !!! Go G Men !!! Cumberland Rd is good though. But the milkshakes at Lynns Drive In are worth the drive back home!
My favorite hot dogs in WV are at DQ in Princeton and Hinton WV. They use toasted buns and of course, chili, onions and slaw if you like. Not like normal DQ dogs!!!
You guys should have hit up The Donut Shop in Buckhannon, WV on your way to Blackwater/Dolly Sods. They have an awesome pepperoni roll. The pepperoni is ground up and served up with your choice of cheese. Tudors is just across the road, basically. Good stuff! The donuts are fantastic too.
I live in Fairmont. I’m so glad you did this series. Mr. Yann just passed away. I’m certain that his recipe and legacy are here to stay. You probably met him. Thanks for the giving Fairmont and West Virginia our flowers while we’re here...
Sorry you didn't care as much for the Slawdog. Our hometown, Sissonville, WV, is considered the birthplace of the Slawdog. The history behind it is documented at wvhotdogblog.blogspot.com/ They state that during the Great Depression that people looked for available items to toss on their hotdogs. Cabbage was cheap and plentiful so cole slaw was used as a topping at the Star Light Drive-in in Sissonville (just 5 miles north of Charleston). The truckers traveld US 21 north-south from Ohio to the Carolinas and began spreading the request across Appalachia. Check out the blog I posted. There is a special scorecard for a true WV hotdog. Of course the slaw must be "fine cut". LOL
The next time you visit Tudor’s you have to order the Mary B! Best biscuit on the menu! I’m from Wayne County, the western most county in West Virginia and we are definitely SLAW DOG people! It was nice seeing highlights from my state! We’ve got some of the best food and best VIEWS!
You have to try ramps if you're interested in West Virginia cuisine. Ramps are usually only available in the spring. Buchannonin WV has a place called The Doughnut Shop, and they sell Ramporroni Rolls in spring. A pepperoni roll with that strong onion/garlic flavor of a ramp.
I don't think people understand how serious the "Slaw Line" is. I was born and raised in Southern West Virginia (moved away a while ago), but I don't particularly care for slaw. Every time we make chili/sauce and do hot dogs and when I don't add slaw, she always says "I don't know where I went wrong in raising you."
West Virginian here! If you ever come back, I second the suggestion of trying Spring Hill Pastry in South Charleston. The “hot dogs” are an institution! Also, you’ve had Tudor’s, so now you have to try Suzi’s (also in South Charleston). Their biscuits are giant and fluffy. I recommend the bacon egg melt. It is heaven. Thanks for spending time in the Mountain State! Y’all come back now, ya hear? 😉
I really enjoyed seeing our hometown being featured in your video. The name Yann's is pronounced like Ann with a Y in front. The cole slaw on the dogs are not my preference, and I live here. LOL I never tasted Slaw Dogs, until a few yrs back, near Buchannon, WV. I think the Slaw would make each taste different, as the recipe for making it is always a family favorite. The Pepperoni Roll Capital of the World is how Fairmont WV is sometimes described, and so many different people do make them using different recipes, some with Hot dog sauce and Mozzarella Cheese melted on top, some with Hot Dog Sauce, Hot Peppers in Tomato Sauce, and of course the Mozzarella Cheese all melted together. Just YUMMY is my description of them, no matter what the addition you add to them. So glad you got to visit our hometown, and enjoyed it too. Come back again, and try out some other places to sink your teeth into. lol
Thank you for the pronunciation help! 🙌🏼 And we definitely agree on the non slaw dogs. All of those variations of pepperoni rolls sound SO good! Such a delicious treat!
I grew up in St. Albans. Moved away in 1990. I miss West Virginia so much and will always consider it home. Love the pepperoni rolls West Virginia hotdogs and Tudors rules.
So awesome that you guys are already in West Virginia. I’m in Southwest Virginia near North Carolina and Tennessee borders. I love hiking the Linville gorge area in North Carolina. Hawksbill and Table Rock are awesome hikes in Linville gorge, if you guys make it over that way. Brevard NC (DuPont State forest) is a great place for waterfalls. In Tennessee, Roan Mountain is a beautiful hike! Hope you have fun!
If you go to the north/south carolina area, you should check out the symmes chapel (or called the pretty place 😂). it’s open for public and part of the ymca. the view is gorgeous!!
Der Dog Haus in Parkersburg has my favorite hotdog! JR‘s Donut Castle (Parkersburg/sliced pepperoni) & Tomaro’s Bakery (Clarksburg/stick pepperoni) are the best pepperoni rolls in the state.
I live right beside Der Dog Haus and was born and raised in clarksburg lol ... love Tomaro’s bakery!!! And Der Dog Haus was where I had my first date with my husband ❤️ best hotdogs for sure!!
Hooray! I'm so happy to have come across your channel. As a lifelong West Virginian I always love seeing the look on people's faces when they try a Tudor's Biscuit--they're soooooo good! We had a pal from Chicago come visit and he was blown away. The next time he came back he wanted Tudor's to be his first stop. Well done y'all!
Tudors of course started small too! It’s so amazing it turned into a chain. Stayed only in WV for so long, and now it’s finally making its way out of the state 😁
I'm a WV native, and they ruined me for hotdogs LOL. I'm not a big hotdog eater in general, but when I do eat one I gotta have the chili & slaw, I don't think I've had a hotdog from anywhere else since I moved. I lived in Chicagoland for 4 years and refused to eat their blasphemous hotdogs with celery salt, pickles, tomatoes & sport peppers! If you find yourselves back in Fairmont, they have a pizza place called Colasessano's that uses provolone cheese instead of mozzarella (it's been like 15 years since I've had it!) that gives you the gooey, stringy pizza slices of your dreams. I can't leave the state without grabbing a couple bags of pepperoni rolls for road trip fuel. Tudor's has a biscuit called the Peppi that's my favorite - think pepperoni roll vibes with the grease melding into the biscuit, but with some cheese sauce added. I eat a lot of salads for dinner when I'm back there to try and counteract the effects of everything else lol.
Okay, now we are drooling! We really want to try Colasessano's next time and that biscuit with pepperoni grease sounds like heaven! Also, love your name! Noelle is my middle name 😃
Tudors is a chain, but not a huge chain like Burger King and McDonald's. Tudors makes all there food homemade. Eggs & Gravy,....and of course their Biscuits. They used to make homemade fried potatoes, but now they are just cubed frozen ones. Here in South Charleston we have a place called Suzy's restaurant. They make homemade Biscuits the size of cat heads! No joking...They huge and delicious.
Another great video but you guys make us hungry. Lol. You like Hotdogs and Chocolate milk? If you ever go to the ATL, you gotta go to the Varsity and get a slaw dog and brown cow. It’s across from Ga Tech downtown off The interstate.
hope y’all had a precious time in wv! im from the fairmont area and yan’s is a local legend. rumor has it that every time the fairmont fire dept goes out on a call, the owner of yan’s takes them hotdogs for when they return. and as far as plain pepperoni rolls, country club is the definite spot! but you can go cross town to colasessano’s for a pepperoni roll with cheese and sauce (their pizza is also AMAZING). hope y’all had a wonderful time! we were certainly happy to have youns!
We loved West Virginia! Such a gorgeous state! I hope that rumor is true, that would be a super cool gesture. And we will 1000% try the pepperoni rolls with cheese and sauce next time.
Glad you're here on the East Coast. I've been many places in WV, but never to Fairmont. Looks beautiful! When traveling from WV to NC, check out the Blue Ridge Parkway in VA. Especially this time of year with the fall foliage. I absolutely love living here in the fall. Safe travels!
Just what we had on our West Virginia trip! And we may have found family members who own their own pepperoni roll factory. Plus, Tudor’s needs to add “Biscuits as big as your head!” as their branding. Every time we go back, have to have it once. And ruh roh - the sauce! But you missed Fairmont’s most awesome attraction: The mini golf course made of coal mining equipment! The kid had a blast there.
Oh wow, a mini golf course with coal mining equipment?! That sounds SO COOL! Adam is a HUGE Tudor's fan now and is already looking forward to eating it many more times before we leave lol!
A few great places to grab a bit to eat or grab a beer in WV: Pies & Pints and Secret Sandwich Society in Fayetteville, WV Hellbender Burritos in Davis, WV Blackbear Burritos and Mountain State Brewing Company in Morgantown, WV The NET, Cham's Lebanese Cuisine, and Philippines Best Food in Parkersburg, WV
I’m in fayette county West Virginia... love me a hot dog with slaw... and there is nothing like a hot pan off cornbread with some pinto beans... I make my own pepperoni rolls, with cheese of course.. and tudors has the best Dukes you can eat...
Just caught your channel researching food eats in WV. I'm planning a backpacking trip to the New River Gorge area. We had eaten a hot dog at Woody's and Sandwich Society and liked it....but Tudor's??? It's my favorite restaurant hands down in WV. I'm looking forward to having breakfast as soon as I hit the state line from Ohio. :) Glad you got to try it! And yes - just eating the biscuit alone is where it's at! Enjoyed your Vlog. Thanks for the reviews and places you stayed.
I grew up in the southern half, mom went through Tudors every morning for coffee and I would get q sweet tea. Pepperoni rolls were big. My dad being from southern wv coal country he was into hot dogs and "footlongs", and of course the slaw was a science. Of course, if you're there in the hills at the right time in the spring there are "Ramps" and we call the critters in the creek "crawdads". And to earn you extra points it's West By God Virginia.
As a native West Virginian living in Memphis my mouth watered watching the Tudors portion of the vlog. If you make your way to the New River Gorge area make sure to visit ACE adventures. Also in the town of Fayetteville you HAVE to go to Pies and Pints!!! Ask for the Italian pizza (not on the menu) and I promise you will not be disappointed!! Can’t wait to watch your next adventure in my home state!
You should've definitely hit up colosessanos and got a pizza and pepperoni roll.. soo good it's the second yanns lol and Palatine park like valentine's but come back soon! ^_^
I can't eat gluten or dairy so in vlogs like this I'm always just eating vicariously through y'all. Thanks for sharing the adventures! Can't wait to see everything else West Virginia has to offer.
Technically I can’t eat gluten either but shhhh 🤫🤫🤫 I will say though, after cheating a bit too much lately, I’m feeling pretty crappy, so I think I’ve learned my lesson 😭
Hi from North Carolina!🖐🏻 Don’t forget to check out Chimney Rock State Park and Grandfather Mountain State Park before driving down! You guys might like to go.😄
We posted quite a few videos from the state during our weeks of exploring in the fall. The link to all of them is in this video's description. We definitely loved it!
Glad you enjoyed. BTW, Woody’s is where it’s at! Next time you’re around here, remember this comment and let me know, I’ll be happy to show you around more!
Pro tip for West Virginians stuck in Texas : Some Kolache places have pizza kolaches and they can tide you over when you can't get pepperoni rolls... As you mentioned, the bread is a little sweeter and definitely not the same but they're pretty good when recently out of the oven... Go early in the morning! I prefer the pepperoni rolls that have a little bit of cheese and sauce to mix with the grease and soaking into the bread, but they're good no matter what way they come really!!!
Tudors is a West Virginia staple. We don’t think of it as a chain restaurant. Next time you’re in my state, look up Hillbilly Hotdogs. They are the place to get the best hot dog in the country.
I’m so excited for you guys to eventually make your way to Ohio! I would suggest coming in the summer or fall! I’m going to come up with a list of recommendations to send you guys (and my grandpa’s scotcheroos) 😂😂
You guys probably don't have access to an oven, but we make something similar we call a pepperoni roll-up. Take frozen bread dough and let it unthaw. When ready, we use most times mozz cheese and pepperoni and stuff fist size amounts of bread with the cheese and meat. Occasionally, we add either beef or Italian sausage and onions.

WV is known for a few things, 1: mountain scenary, 2: pepperoni rolls and 3: friendliest folk in the country
Heck, before we moved we never really locked our doors in the day at all, till 1 day when a strang guy moved in and had a different accent, a while later when my mom and dad left, the door was POUNDING, I thought it was mom and dad, but I didnt here any key rattling, then next morning my bike, was gone, it was stolen

You need to see Green Bank wv and Cass railroad.
We will hit up those spots next time. Thank you for the suggestions!
Green Bank is really cool!
Love these vlogs!! Food inspo for when we visit
Yay, so glad to hear that! We love when places have some unique items to try 😃
I can’t stop laughing about Ying and Yang every time you talking about that hot dog place 😂😂😂😂
Hahaha our poor pronunciations?

Hahaha we couldn’t figure out how to say it 🤣
You’re not a bad follower lol! We appreciate anyone taking the time to watch!
Tudors is the bomb
It exceeded our expectations! Adam _still_ talks about it!
Pretty cool seeing harpers ferry in the vid I live 10 mins from it
That’s a really cool area!
im from wv but here we have mozerella cheese in our pepperoni rolls
We hear that's a common way to have them. Country Club Bakery unfortunately doesn't offer them that way.
Being from this area I think you guys did it justice as outsiders! You didn’t make any jokes about stereotypes. There are obviously unhealthy traditions here, and I appreciate that you guys didn’t talk down about.

I'm from, WV too. they missed the Pizza Place in Parkersburg, WV. THAT is the stuff!!
Unfortunately our stomachs and wallets can only do so much 😉
Woah this comment blew up way more than I expected
Same very true.
The Tudor biscuits are made fresh in house.
We could tell! They were legit!
I know.i live here
The one on weirton is...meh
LOL I walked by Hershel Craigo
Tudor's biscuits location down around Charleston and Huntington WV don't offer the biscuit they purchased. My favorite is the Thundering Herd .
We just moved to West Virginia last year. Best move we’ve ever made! And we have lived in many different states.
That is awesome!!!
Welcome to our beautiful state! 💙💛
Make your way to South Charleston and order some hot dogs at Spring Hill Bakery.
We headed down that way, but no hot dogs there. Next time!
@@AdventuresofAplusK they run out quick go when they open
Spring Hill Bakery's pastries are ah-maze-ing. And the Indian Mound in South Charleston is a cool place to wander.
I grew up in St. Albans (southern portion of WV), and Tudor’s is part of my blood stream. When I come home to visit, I end up getting Tudor’s every morning. That one in Morgantown is a newer restaurant. The one I grew up with is crusty and greasy... which adds to the character & flavor. Welcome to WV. I love the mountains.
Hahaha love it!!! If we lived in WV it would become part of Adam’s blood stream as well 🤣 What is your favorite thing to get there?
Ayyyy a fellow citizen of WV
When I visit family in Point Pleasant WV, I time my drive to get there while Tudors is still open since they close early.

If you're ever in Charleston, West Virginia be sure to check out Ellen's Ice Cream on Capitol Street. You can also get great food and entertainment when Live on the Levee is in season ( Fridays over the summer starting at around 6:30).
We went there during our trip! SO good!
No way Austin's Ice Cream is way better
Add another West Virginia staple oliverio's peppers and mozzarella cheese amazing on top of any pepperoni roll
Sounds amazing! 😍😍
As someone who was raised here in clarksburg, wv I agree. Oliverios has the best peppers and tomatoes, parkette is also a good family ran restraunt. Also dont forget Tony's icecream and make sure you get the black raspberry flavored.
YES!!!
This is so amazing!! Pepperoni Rolls are such an iconic Central Appalachian food! If you all make your way through Kentucky, you should try to check out the Red River Gorge Area!!
We just heard about this area the other day and wow it looks gorgeous! 😍
Glad you enjoyed my home state. I’m from the wheeling area of West Virginia and I always enjoy seeing someone appreciate our state. I feel like we’re pretty underrated by people.
Definitely underrated! We loved WV!
Ayyyy another fellow citizen of WV
IKR , my husbands family lives in Maryland.. and I get all the eve jokes. I wouldn’t live anywhere else.. it’s beautiful.. ntm we are firm second amendment supporters. I would not want to live where I can’t protect myself and family from a criminal with a gun.
You're in Fairmont, you should have tried Muirele's the best Italian resteraunt ever.
We will try to next time!
I was born and raised in WV honestly, until this video I had 0 IDEA what a WV style hot dog was, or that it even existed
I totally agree! Muriales is AMAZING
They have the best salads ever
Idk about best ever but maybe best in Fairmont lol
Just found your channel a couple of weeks ago and so glad I did. Love my Yann Dogs, Country Club Bakery Pepperoni Rolls and Tudor's Biscut World. College was full of Yann dogs. And when I'm visiting my home state, there's always a visit to Biscuit World. Beauty abounds in the Mountain State and I hope you get to experience it all. Check out Blackwater Falls, Dolly Sods, and Seneca Rock as they're the pride of the state. And of course there is the New River Gorge area plus many historic areas such as Harper's Ferry and Jackson's Mill. Travel the country roads and enjoy the peaceful, rolling mountains. Keep up the great work! Mountaineer Proud!
Aw yay! So glad you found us and awesome timing that we are now in your home state! We are absolutely loving it so far! The mountains, country roads, food, and history are all amazing. We are definitely visiting the majority of those spots you mentioned and cannot wait to share 🙌
I love this! Welcome to West Virginia! I hope you guys enjoy it and be sure to check out the entire New River area!
We are loving it so far! And we cannot wait to make it down there 🙌🏼
Quick tip:
Go in top of a mountain and look town at the country at sun down.its beautiful
West Virginia, take me home country roads (John Denver)! Can’t wait to see where you go next! Will you be stopping at Hillbilly HotDogs in Lesage?
We reallyyyy wanted to and tried to alter our route for it, but couldn't fit it in this time. It looks SO cool and tasty though! And that song has been stuck in our head for a week lol!
Why is that song so popular I havent even heard it once in public
@@AdventuresofAplusK their food is great
I was going to suggest Hillbilly Hot Dog too!! Guy Fieri has been there on Diners, Drive ins & Dives!! They have really good hot dogs!! Also, if y'all are ever back here in WV, you should definitely eat at Pies & Pints!!
We love Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives and wanted to go there so badly! We did go to Pies & Pints though in our New River Gorge video!
If ever in WV again, in the Charleston area they have some great local and small places but a small biscuit place is called suzys, they only really do breakfast and lunch and are closed by 1 I think but they have even better biscuits than Tudor’s! And also try lolas pizza or Hudson’s pizza, lolas is a little more expensive but well worth it in my opinion.
We really liked the Charleston area! We explored a bit, but didn’t have a chance to eat (besides ice cream haha), so we will have to check it out!
@@AdventuresofAplusK there used to be two suzy's locations, now there is only one. directy across from the mound in south charleston wv. there is a nifty lil asian supermarket there too.
Husson’s Pizza is a must for sure
Suzi’s FTW! 🙌🏼❤️
My grandma was a manager at a Tudors! Next time, get the blueberry pancakes and a biscut and gravy!!!
That is awesome! Hopefully you got free biscuits 😉 Thanks for the tips!
I just found your channel today, and have enjoyed your videos. For true WV hot dogs, you need to travel south, to Huntington, WV, and try them at Midway Drive In. They are the best around. Another institution in Huntington is Frost Top. Both are amazing, and they both still make their root beer in-house, to compliment the hot dogs. Definitely worth the trip.
We reallyyyy wanted to make it to Huntington and almost drove out of the way to go out there, but couldn't swing it. Definitely will next time though! We love homemade root beer!
Yes, the root beer at both places is awesome!!!
And get a tshirt from Frost Top!
Burger's at Midway are delicious !
Oh yeah or the hillbilly hotdogs off next to River too
Great job touring West Virginia my home state.
Thanks so much! We loved it!
I had pepperoni rolls shipped to me while I was in Iraq. We actually make our own, but we grind the pepperoni sticks. It allows more juice to escape into the bread !
That makes sense and sounds so good! And thank you for your service!
Oooh, you are heading to NC! How cool! I'm right here in Winston-Salem. Hope you enjoy your time here. The Blue Ridge Parkway is beautiful!
We cannot wait to be back in NC! Last time we were by the Blue Ridge Parkway it was snowing and mostly closed, so we are hoping for better luck this time!
From WV, love both, but Yann's is AWESOME!!!
Yann's was super good!
I was born and raised in Bluefield, WV, on the Southern border of Virginia and West Virginia. I went to college at West Virginia University (WVU) in Morgantown, WV, about 4 hours drive north of my hometown.
I always thought the Dairy Queen in my hometown made the best Slaw Dog. The minor league baseball stadium for Bowen Field, home of the Bluefield Blue Jays, makes a great Slaw Dog too. Love WV Pepperoni Rolls. Also Love Pinto Beans and Cornbread.
If you want to try some true seasonal West Virginia foods, try Ramps (Wild Onions/Garlic) in the Spring and Pawpaws in the Fall. Both of these food items need to be foraged in the woods or found in the local Farmer’s Market.
We tried some Pawpaw ice cream in Charleston, WV and LOVED it! Super good! We've heard about ramps in the spring and will have to come back to try it! Pinto beans and cornbread sounds amazing too 😋
I would have to say that the best slaw dogs are at the Dairy Queen across the border !!! Go G Men !!! Cumberland Rd is good though. But the milkshakes at Lynns Drive In are worth the drive back home!
I worked at that Dairy Queen in high school and now I also attend WVU! I love how everyone in southern wv knows about the Cumberland Rd DQ :)
My favorite hot dogs in WV are at DQ in Princeton and Hinton WV. They use toasted buns and of course, chili, onions and slaw if you like. Not like normal DQ dogs!!!
Oh wow, we would’ve never guessed that DQ had a solid WV hot dog!
That DQ is legendary
Both dairy Queens here in bluefield toast the buns too 😋 best dogs ever!!
You guys should have hit up The Donut Shop in Buckhannon, WV on your way to Blackwater/Dolly Sods. They have an awesome pepperoni roll. The pepperoni is ground up and served up with your choice of cheese. Tudors is just across the road, basically. Good stuff! The donuts are fantastic too.
That sounds sooo good! 🤤
I’m from fairmont I always pronounce it yans (not yawns) u gotta get a pepperoni roll from colos or woodys with sauce and cheese
That sounds like a delicious combo!
That’s how I had it. It was purty dang good.
West Virginia
Mountain Mama
Take me Home country roads ♥️
😊🍁
Basically been on repeat since we got here lol!
@@AdventuresofAplusK I know, it's still a beautiful song♥️
I've lived here for a long time and I havent heard that song once
@@MemeDeliveryPrime It's by John Denver and has been around since the early 70s. I don't even listen to country music and know the song.
I live in Fairmont. I’m so glad you did this series. Mr. Yann just passed away. I’m certain that his recipe and legacy are here to stay. You probably met him. Thanks for the giving Fairmont and West Virginia our flowers while we’re here...
We are so glad we chose to go to Yann's! We hope his legacy can continue!
fairmont gang i’m on east side
4:55 You can see his arms as he makes the hotdogs
So sorry to hear about your loss. I am sure his legacy will live on 🙏 ♥
I'm late, but really hope you enjoyed WV! P.S. United Diary chocolate milk is the best
We loved it! And that was some dang good chocolate milk! 🍫🥛
TRUTH
Sorry you didn't care as much for the Slawdog. Our hometown, Sissonville, WV, is considered the birthplace of the Slawdog. The history behind it is documented at wvhotdogblog.blogspot.com/ They state that during the Great Depression that people looked for available items to toss on their hotdogs. Cabbage was cheap and plentiful so cole slaw was used as a topping at the Star Light Drive-in in Sissonville (just 5 miles north of Charleston). The truckers traveld US 21 north-south from Ohio to the Carolinas and began spreading the request across Appalachia. Check out the blog I posted. There is a special scorecard for a true WV hotdog. Of course the slaw must be "fine cut". LOL
It was less the slaw dog and more just slaw lol! I am not a huge fan of slaw in any form haha. Thank you for sharing the story of it!
The next time you visit Tudor’s you have to order the Mary B! Best biscuit on the menu! I’m from Wayne County, the western most county in West Virginia and we are definitely SLAW DOG people! It was nice seeing highlights from my state! We’ve got some of the best food and best VIEWS!
You have a gorgeous state! And we look forward to trying that biscuit next time!
The Mary B is my favorite
Tudor's smacks. The biscuits are legit housemade style and are made daily. The burgers are really good too.
Sooo good!
You have to try ramps if you're interested in West Virginia cuisine. Ramps are usually only available in the spring. Buchannonin WV has a place called The Doughnut Shop, and they sell Ramporroni Rolls in spring. A pepperoni roll with that strong onion/garlic flavor of a ramp.
If we can make it back in the spring sometime we’d love to try ramps!
I don't think people understand how serious the "Slaw Line" is. I was born and raised in Southern West Virginia (moved away a while ago), but I don't particularly care for slaw. Every time we make chili/sauce and do hot dogs and when I don't add slaw, she always says "I don't know where I went wrong in raising you."
Hahahaha we read a bunch of articles about it and it felt like a serious debate!
There's two types of people in the world. People who think slaw goes on hotdogs and those who are wrong.
Amen ma
West Virginian here! If you ever come back, I second the suggestion of trying Spring Hill Pastry in South Charleston. The “hot dogs” are an institution! Also, you’ve had Tudor’s, so now you have to try Suzi’s (also in South Charleston). Their biscuits are giant and fluffy. I recommend the bacon egg melt. It is heaven.
Thanks for spending time in the Mountain State! Y’all come back now, ya hear? 😉
Soooo many foods we need to come back and eat! 😋😋😋
WV BABY!
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I really enjoyed seeing our hometown being featured in your video. The name Yann's is pronounced like Ann with a Y in front.
The cole slaw on the dogs are not my preference, and I live here. LOL I never tasted Slaw Dogs, until a few yrs back, near Buchannon, WV. I think the Slaw would make each taste different, as the recipe for making it is always a family favorite.
The Pepperoni Roll Capital of the World is how Fairmont WV is sometimes described, and so many different people do make them using different recipes, some with Hot dog sauce and Mozzarella Cheese melted on top, some with Hot Dog Sauce, Hot Peppers in Tomato Sauce, and of course the Mozzarella Cheese all melted together. Just YUMMY is my description of them, no matter what the addition you add to them.
So glad you got to visit our hometown, and enjoyed it too. Come back again, and try out some other places to sink your teeth into. lol
Thank you for the pronunciation help! 🙌🏼 And we definitely agree on the non slaw dogs. All of those variations of pepperoni rolls sound SO good! Such a delicious treat!
I grew up in St. Albans. Moved away in 1990. I miss West Virginia so much and will always consider it home. Love the pepperoni rolls West Virginia hotdogs and Tudors rules.
West Virginia is such a gorgeous state! We had such a great time there!
So awesome that you guys are already in West Virginia. I’m in Southwest Virginia near North Carolina and Tennessee borders. I love hiking the Linville gorge area in North Carolina. Hawksbill and Table Rock are awesome hikes in Linville gorge, if you guys make it over that way. Brevard NC (DuPont State forest) is a great place for waterfalls. In Tennessee, Roan Mountain is a beautiful hike! Hope you have fun!
Thank you soooo much for the tips Melissa! We have Linville Gorge on our list and are so excited to hear that it's as awesome as it looks!
If you go to the north/south carolina area, you should check out the symmes chapel (or called the pretty place 😂). it’s open for public and part of the ymca. the view is gorgeous!!
Oh wow! That view! 😱😱
Der Dog Haus in Parkersburg has my favorite hotdog! JR‘s Donut Castle (Parkersburg/sliced pepperoni) & Tomaro’s Bakery (Clarksburg/stick pepperoni) are the best pepperoni rolls in the state.
Ooo we will have to try those next time! 😋😋
I live right beside Der Dog Haus and was born and raised in clarksburg lol ... love Tomaro’s bakery!!! And Der Dog Haus was where I had my first date with my husband ❤️ best hotdogs for sure!!
Welcome to West Virginia even tho I’m late ! I hope you love it as much as we do
Ps they actually make the biscuits fresh daily
We had such a great time! And LOVED Tudor's!
I hope you enjoyed your stay in our beautiful state! Thank you for portraying us in a positive light!
We had an amazing time, it's so gorgeous and underrated!
I’m currently living in Fairmont wish I would’ve known about your channel before this video was up glad you enjoyed your visit!
Ah nice! Wish we could’ve run into ya!
@@AdventuresofAplusK I probably passed you on the road at some point we go to palitine pretty often.
Ah nice! We hung out there a bunch working!
Hooray! I'm so happy to have come across your channel. As a lifelong West Virginian I always love seeing the look on people's faces when they try a Tudor's Biscuit--they're soooooo good! We had a pal from Chicago come visit and he was blown away. The next time he came back he wanted Tudor's to be his first stop. Well done y'all!
Adam still raves about it! We didn’t expect it to be that good! 🙌🏼
Tudors of course started small too! It’s so amazing it turned into a chain. Stayed only in WV for so long, and now it’s finally making its way out of the state 😁
It’s exciting to see local spots do well and become popular!
This was really made well! I’m excited to see this channel grow!😊
Thank you! 😄
I'm happy to see something nice about my home state
Your home state is gorgeous!
I'm a WV native, and they ruined me for hotdogs LOL. I'm not a big hotdog eater in general, but when I do eat one I gotta have the chili & slaw, I don't think I've had a hotdog from anywhere else since I moved. I lived in Chicagoland for 4 years and refused to eat their blasphemous hotdogs with celery salt, pickles, tomatoes & sport peppers! If you find yourselves back in Fairmont, they have a pizza place called Colasessano's that uses provolone cheese instead of mozzarella (it's been like 15 years since I've had it!) that gives you the gooey, stringy pizza slices of your dreams. I can't leave the state without grabbing a couple bags of pepperoni rolls for road trip fuel. Tudor's has a biscuit called the Peppi that's my favorite - think pepperoni roll vibes with the grease melding into the biscuit, but with some cheese sauce added. I eat a lot of salads for dinner when I'm back there to try and counteract the effects of everything else lol.
Okay, now we are drooling! We really want to try Colasessano's next time and that biscuit with pepperoni grease sounds like heaven! Also, love your name! Noelle is my middle name 😃
@@AdventuresofAplusK Noelle is my (2nd) middle name too! I just want all of it, I could go for some greasy goodness lol
The Smokehouse in Charleston (the Capitol of West Virginia)Has really good food.My fav.is there hamburgers & hot dogs.Good homeade food.
Thanks for the recommendation!
Tudors is a chain, but not a huge chain like Burger King and McDonald's. Tudors makes all there food homemade. Eggs & Gravy,....and of course their Biscuits. They used to make homemade fried potatoes, but now they are just cubed frozen ones. Here in South Charleston we have a place called Suzy's restaurant. They make homemade Biscuits the size of cat heads! No joking...They huge and delicious.
Oh wow we will have to go there sometime!
Hillbilly Hotdogs is amazing.
We really wanted to go there!
I used to live about 15 mins from there, it's a cool place but pretty pricey for a hotdog
Ravenswood, WV here. I like my pepperoni rolls with pepper jack cheese baked in them
🤤🤤🤤 sounds incredible!
Love to see WV getting love. Mr. Yann actually passed away recently, so it’s good you got to experience that!
WV is amazing! Majorly underrated! And we are glad we got to experience it too. Hoping his legacy continues!
The thundering herd from Tudors is the bomb diggity!
We miss Tudors!
You visited the best place in WV for Pepperoni Rolls and Hot Dogs.
Woo! Glad we picked some good spots!
Another great video but you guys make us hungry. Lol. You like Hotdogs and Chocolate milk? If you ever go to the ATL, you gotta go to the Varsity and get a slaw dog and brown cow. It’s across from Ga Tech downtown off The interstate.
We have always wanted to go there! Such a weird, but good combo!
hope y’all had a precious time in wv! im from the fairmont area and yan’s is a local legend. rumor has it that every time the fairmont fire dept goes out on a call, the owner of yan’s takes them hotdogs for when they return. and as far as plain pepperoni rolls, country club is the definite spot! but you can go cross town to colasessano’s for a pepperoni roll with cheese and sauce (their pizza is also AMAZING).
hope y’all had a wonderful time! we were certainly happy to have youns!
We loved West Virginia! Such a gorgeous state! I hope that rumor is true, that would be a super cool gesture. And we will 1000% try the pepperoni rolls with cheese and sauce next time.
You were in my neck of the woods! I'm about 15 miles from Fairmont. I just found your channel today!
Ah no way! Such a beautiful area!
Glad you're here on the East Coast. I've been many places in WV, but never to Fairmont. Looks beautiful! When traveling from WV to NC, check out the Blue Ridge Parkway in VA. Especially this time of year with the fall foliage. I absolutely love living here in the fall. Safe travels!
We absolutely will! We cannot wait! Last time we were in the area the Blue Ridge Parkway was closed, so we are excited to see it!
Just what we had on our West Virginia trip! And we may have found family members who own their own pepperoni roll factory. Plus, Tudor’s needs to add “Biscuits as big as your head!” as their branding. Every time we go back, have to have it once. And ruh roh - the sauce! But you missed Fairmont’s most awesome attraction: The mini golf course made of coal mining equipment! The kid had a blast there.
Oh wow, a mini golf course with coal mining equipment?! That sounds SO COOL! Adam is a HUGE Tudor's fan now and is already looking forward to eating it many more times before we leave lol!
I said "over YANN-der" right before you did haha. We know nothing about West Virginia - excited to learn!
Hahahaha I am so glad I’m not the only one with punny jokes! 😜
Bee eff effs!
A few great places to grab a bit to eat or grab a beer in WV:
Pies & Pints and Secret Sandwich Society in Fayetteville, WV
Hellbender Burritos in Davis, WV
Blackbear Burritos and Mountain State Brewing Company in Morgantown, WV
The NET, Cham's Lebanese Cuisine, and Philippines Best Food in Parkersburg, WV
We just visited two of those in our next vlog! 🙌🏼
I have not been to West Virginia either, great to share the adventure with you.
We are sooo pumped to share more!
love the pronunciation correction. almost everyone pronounces it wrong 👍
We try to always say things right 😄
Watched this while I was hungry...needless to say it didn’t help! 😂🤤
Hahahaha we are so sorry!
I’m in fayette county West Virginia... love me a hot dog with slaw... and there is nothing like a hot pan off cornbread with some pinto beans... I make my own pepperoni rolls, with cheese of course.. and tudors has the best Dukes you can eat...
You're making us SO hungry! Cornbread with pinto beans sounds amazing!
Great video I laughed out loud when Kathryn got the spice 😂👍👍
Hahahah it got me gooood! 🤣
Just caught your channel researching food eats in WV. I'm planning a backpacking trip to the New River Gorge area. We had eaten a hot dog at Woody's and Sandwich Society and liked it....but Tudor's??? It's my favorite restaurant hands down in WV. I'm looking forward to having breakfast as soon as I hit the state line from Ohio. :) Glad you got to try it! And yes - just eating the biscuit alone is where it's at! Enjoyed your Vlog. Thanks for the reviews and places you stayed.
Tudors is so good! We were so surprised by how much we loved it!
Over "Yon"der 🥰
😜😜
I grew up in the southern half, mom went through Tudors every morning for coffee and I would get q sweet tea. Pepperoni rolls were big. My dad being from southern wv coal country he was into hot dogs and "footlongs", and of course the slaw was a science. Of course, if you're there in the hills at the right time in the spring there are "Ramps" and we call the critters in the creek "crawdads". And to earn you extra points it's West By God Virginia.
We definitely want to come back in the spring sometime to try ramps!
As a native West Virginian living in Memphis my mouth watered watching the Tudors portion of the vlog. If you make your way to the New River Gorge area make sure to visit ACE adventures. Also in the town of Fayetteville you HAVE to go to Pies and Pints!!! Ask for the Italian pizza (not on the menu) and I promise you will not be disappointed!! Can’t wait to watch your next adventure in my home state!
Pies and Pints is definitely on our list for while in WV! We can’t wait! 🙌🏼😋
You should've definitely hit up colosessanos and got a pizza and pepperoni roll.. soo good it's the second yanns lol and Palatine park like valentine's but come back soon! ^_^
We will definitely be going to Colasessano's next time!
I can't eat gluten or dairy so in vlogs like this I'm always just eating vicariously through y'all. Thanks for sharing the adventures! Can't wait to see everything else West Virginia has to offer.
Technically I can’t eat gluten either but shhhh 🤫🤫🤫 I will say though, after cheating a bit too much lately, I’m feeling pretty crappy, so I think I’ve learned my lesson 😭
You should've visited Blennerhasset island in my hometown of Parkersburg
Maybe next time!
Thanks guys Glad you enjoyed the food, there's a lot of history here ,so Hope you guys come back soon. Keep it going Guys
We definitely will be back!
Hi from North Carolina!🖐🏻 Don’t forget to check out Chimney Rock State Park and Grandfather Mountain State Park before driving down! You guys might like to go.😄
Thank you for the recommendations! 😄
Now that you’ve eaten...let’s see West Virginia 😀
Lots of WV coming soon!
@@AdventuresofAplusK I really hope so. You’d love this state if you had time to do some exploring.
We posted quite a few videos from the state during our weeks of exploring in the fall. The link to all of them is in this video's description. We definitely loved it!
First thing I do when I go home to WV is grab a "WV hotdog". I have dreamed about them.
That is awesome!
Glad you enjoyed. BTW, Woody’s is where it’s at! Next time you’re around here, remember this comment and let me know, I’ll be happy to show you around more!
Nice to see a Woody’s fan on here! 🌭🌭 And thanks so much for the offer!
Pro tip for West Virginians stuck in Texas : Some Kolache places have pizza kolaches and they can tide you over when you can't get pepperoni rolls... As you mentioned, the bread is a little sweeter and definitely not the same but they're pretty good when recently out of the oven... Go early in the morning! I prefer the pepperoni rolls that have a little bit of cheese and sauce to mix with the grease and soaking into the bread, but they're good no matter what way they come really!!!
Oooo solid tip!!!
I'm from Fairmont and woodys is definitely the go to! :)
Woo! Glad we picked a good spot!
Im from Martinsburg but lived/worked in Fairmont for about a year and l loved Woodys! I was hoping someone would mention them!
Tudors is a West Virginia staple. We don’t think of it as a chain restaurant. Next time you’re in my state, look up Hillbilly Hotdogs. They are the place to get the best hot dog in the country.
We really wanted to go there, but it was pretty out of the way for us this past trip. Next time!
I’m so excited for you guys to eventually make your way to Ohio! I would suggest coming in the summer or fall! I’m going to come up with a list of recommendations to send you guys (and my grandpa’s scotcheroos) 😂😂
Yes!!! Send away! We are hoping to visit late next summer!
I've moved away from West Virginia since graduating, but i still miss the pepperoni rolls. They're a definite comfort food for me.
When you guys go to Tennessee, be sure to hike Alum Cave trail up to Mt. Leconte. You really won't regret it!
It’s on the list! We can’t wait! 🙌🏼
I’ll second this hike. I have a video of it over on my channel as well.
I will third that.
Just to let you know that Russell Yann has passed away but thankfully his family is keeping the tradition going.
We heard the sad news 💔
You guys probably don't have access to an oven, but we make something similar we call a pepperoni roll-up. Take frozen bread dough and let it unthaw. When ready, we use most times mozz cheese and pepperoni and stuff fist size amounts of bread with the cheese and meat. Occasionally, we add either beef or Italian sausage and onions.
Yum! We will have to try this when we have access to an oven!
Fairmont local here, Yann's is a legendary local spot and getting food from there really did respect to Fairmont
❤️❤️
Peproni rolls makes me think of Double Daves Pizza. That does look like a Kolache. That look on Kathryn's face at 7:24 had me feeling the spice, LOL.
Oh man the spice got me realllll good in the throat hahah!
